paroles de chanson My Father's Eyes - Eric Clapton

Sailin' down behind the sun
Waitin' for my
Prince to come
Praying for the healing rain
To restore my soul again

Just a toe rag
On the run
How did I get here?
What have I done?
When will all my
Hopes arise?
How will I know him
When I look in my father's eyes?
(Looked into my father's eyes)
My father's eyes
When I look in my father's eyes
(Looked into my father's eyes)
My father's eyes

Then the light begins to shine
And I hear those ancient
Lullabies
And as I watch this seedling grow
Feel my heart start to overflow

Where do I find the words to say?
How do I teach him?
What do we play?
Bit by bit
I've realized
That's when I need them
That's when I need my father's eyes
(Looked into my father's eyes)
My father's eyes
That's when I need my father's eyes
(Looked into my father's eyes)
My father's eyes, (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Then the jagged edge appears
Through the distant clouds of tears
Now, I'm like a bridge that was washed away
My foundations were made of clay

As my soul slides down to die
How could I lose him?
What did I try?
Bit by bit
I've realized
That he was here with me
I looked into my father's eye

(Looked into my father's eyes)
My father's eyes
I looked into my father's eyes
(Looked into my father's eyes)
My father's eyes
My father's eyes
(Looked into my father's eyes)
My father's eyes
I looked into my father's eyes
(Looked into my father's eyes)
My father's eyes
(Looked into my father's eyes)
(Looked into my father's eyes)
(Looked into my father's eyes)
